Burn Lyrics by Skin Yard

Hallowed Ground

1988

[Verse 1]
Smell the fire burn
In front of your bed
Hear the laughter there
Hurting your head
Smell the gasoline
In your room
See her standing there
She's leaving, yeah

[Chorus]
So you break down the walls
You break down yourself
You break down your mind
You're breaking down

[Verse 2]
Smell the fire burn
In front of your bed
See her leaving there
It's turning until you're dead

[Pre-Chorus]
Smell the fire burn
Feel your mind turn up
Turn...
See her standing there
She's leaving
Smell the fire, smell the fire

[Chorus]
So you break down the walls
You break down yourself
You break down your mind
Your mind is breaking down
Down...

[Outro]
Your mind is down
Burning down
Smell, smell, smell the fire
Smell it
